How to Make Bachelor Chow

  1. In a large non-stick skillet, brown 1 lb of ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Once melted, stir in 1 cup of water, 1-2 tablespoons of Frank's RedHot Sauce (adjust to your spice preference), and 1 cup of uncooked long-grain rice.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. Fluff the rice with a fork and serve immediately. Enjoy!
